Hollywood kills.

Heard "All About You" by Mcfly? Its so sweet! Ahh, anyways, you know how I think those Hollywood teen romances are simply bogus. Haha. Its impossible for two people to meet and immediately know they they're the ONE that you're simply destined with. Bogus, I tell you.

Relationships, in truth are bittersweet. Romance novels or the movies are a bad representation of the truth, which is why I've never read the former or particularly liked the latter. Those depicted are but the active imagination of the script writer or the author. And their imagination earns them big bucks. Damn. I also want.

Anyway, I spent a good portion of yesterday basking in the silence of the Woodlands Library. Ah, how I love that place. Being surrounded by books, books and nothing else. Picked up some local literature. Re-read Catherine Lim's "Following the wrong God home" which I simply adore. Tells a tale of a girl who is pressured to marry someone, yet her heart beats for someone else. Felt like I met and empathised with Yin Ling for the umpteenth time.

Reading Damien Sin's short stories compelled me to write again. I stopped writing proper journals or short stories in early J1 because, well, yes, because I had no time. I really miss writing, now come to think of it! haha! I used to sit down and write for hours in sec4. How lovely it was.

Oh well. Circumstances.


how i dream for you
to wake me from this nightmare
to wrap me in your arms;
so close,
to say words that i so long to hear.

but dreams are but mere fantasy.
they do not happen,
they are not real.

even so,
how i wish
this dream will come true.
